i think it was time to sit down and talk with headlines for this hour right now on our team from national and it was a big meeting today. iran and russia share their outlook on us sanctions for ukrainian conflict and a comprehensive strategic partnership between the 2 countries that, that foreign ministers got together today. karen most with our size, israel is still friends with america, despite to something mizrahi officials suggesting that washington is somehow involved in the nation wide protests that that country open at yahoo supposed judicial report also the prime minister of potent has taken aim of the you for failing to deliver on the key points of the western back ukrainian grain deal resulting in european farm was devastated as an over supplies for local prices

with a very warm welcome to you from the entire international news team here on the russian capital. we do come to you line from scott, so it runs foreign minister has help folks with this russian count upon here in moscow. he was all today about, well, plans for a comprehensive strategic partnership treaty between the 2 countries and much more regional cooperation though. that being said. so get off, took him. i went to add that a washington needs to lift sanctions off iran. mute population in the world is still waiting for the us to resume its obligations in the iranian killer deal. and little our sanctions imposed only right when we sunk food bug i love was very critical of the sanctions that have been imposed on around by the united states. of course they were imposed after the a collapse of the joint comprehensive agreement. this was the ran nuclear deal and

that the bar, the trump administration arbitrarily, are pulled out of now he's said that the sanctions must be brought to an end. now talks have be continuing air in vienna, not face to face, have been done through a mediator, but progress has been very slow in that area. am of course at unsurprisingly, the 2 men spoke about salary, the situation in ukraine lab. rob said that the west can end the conflict at any minute, but decide to flood cave with arms. instead, he said that last week he said that the u. s. excuse they, anthony blinking. you spoke against a ceasefire saying that it would be in rushes, a benefit, but also that they are raining. foreign minister lambasted the western approach, and he as well called for dialogue throw norlisha dog. so discussing the situation in ukraine, we highlighted nato's undermining line of behavior. that are with both feet, standing in the ukrainian conflict, intervene, suck, deeper and deeper into it was,

honestly, i don't know to can go any deeper. look at a bestseller attack that the west to supply ukraine with weapons in our opinion. only worse as the situation in ukraine will need to solve it by diplomatic means. hambert and both men said that they supported initiatives for a peaceful resolution. they welcomed for chinese president. she jing ping's road map to peace. that was outlined again during his recent visit with her to moscow where he met with president putin. but sir guy lebrun said that those talks must be based on what he describers, indivisible security that no country can strengthen it. security at the expense of another. of course, he was most likely referring to nato's continuing expansion eastward, despite promising not one more inch. but he said that this was enshrined in the un charter and shrine didn't international law. it is, it is fascinating though the that, that the moving and shaking, we're seeing these days, steve, on the geopolitical transport, him in his iran visiting moscow. right. as the foreign ministers of iran, all these other countries around the world that working overtime. because so gay

lover off is working double over time these days. i mean, iran is poised to join the seo the shanghai cooperation organization. iran is poised to join bricks, brazil, russia, india, china, south africa. i've heard, there are 22 other countries who will want to join britain. you can call them the d dollarization coalitions, d because these are countries with china's contemporary silk road. we're all going to be doing international trade in national currencies. i mean, this is hugely important and the foreign minister, they said that 49 documents that were required to join the shanghai corporation organization have now been ratified by the iranian parliament. labels has spoken about, as you said, joining the bricks and bricks alliance, 22 countries. we just heard as well. the and saudi arabia is now looking to join the shanghai cooperation organization that has now been agreed. and i must say was the sort jumping, but it was china that brought saudi arabia and iran together recently, wasn't it? of course. and, and the reigning foreign minister mentioned this he, he,

in fact her thanked china for their efforts in mediating this army, a hugely significant piece deal, which not only brings em saudi arabian ran together, but it's also warmed relations between saudi arabia and syria. so these are the, you know, the u. s. his main strategic ally in the region. reality is now looking to opening embassies again in both of those countries. syria, of course, been welcome back into the, to the arab lee. and of course, next week, as the uranium foreign minister said, there's these quadra lateral talks between russia and around, but looking to bring syria and turkey close together. so this does normalization relations between those 2. again, hugely important for the, the 12 year conflict in syria. they've both been on opposing sides of that president asked out of course, again, also recently in russia. so russia played a very important role in, in this respect. but also again, you mentioned the soup pro de bolton road initiative, china's i get this

a hugely expensive project, which we'll see a countries trading in, in local currency. so this shift away from the dollar massively important because if the u. s. loses the dollar was the world currency, it loses its ability to dominate, while financial markets. israel to prime minister benjamin netanyahu slams what he calls the countries closest friends saying israel will define its own path independently. this comes on the heels of u. s. criticism of the countries judicial reform, the spark nationwide protests, israel is the sovereign country, which makes is decisions by the will of its people and not based on precious from abroad, including from the best of friends. these really prime minister was talking about the us israel's closest friend and ally, and it's very active interference and israel's internal affairs. but choking often tend yahoo expressed his concerns about external pressure and interference into

israel's internal affairs from abroad. he came out and said that these railey us friendship is unshakable, even though the 2 countries might have certain disagreements. and they certainly do for months in yahoo's block has been very actively pushing for a controversial judicial reform that saw huge public disapproval, including in the military ranks. on tuesday, americans, president biden criticized the path israel chose to follow. what also remains to be seen is when newton yahoo will be invited to washington in the same speed to bind and made it clear that for now these really prime minister, whose government came to power 3 months ago. and he already traveled to a number of european countries with official visits is not welcomed in the white house, like many strong support. mm. i'm very concerned with that. they get history cannot continue on with

hopeful, hopefully, funding with yes indeed, this trade a very harsh words between best friends, israel and the u. s. comes and made claims from inside israel, from some israeli officials that washington may be involved, maybe behind or even sponsoring massive anti government protests that have been shaking the country for 13 weeks in a row. on saturday evening netanyahu son shared an article on his social media about the report that reveals with the state department allocates a lot of money for the reservation and supporting demonstrators here in israel. some israeli officials started asking legitimate questions. this protest is financed and organized with millions of dollars. we're following what is happening . this is a very high level organization. there is an organized center from which all the

demonstrators branch out in an orderly manner who finances to transportation to flags, the stages. it's clear to us that you asked has been denying all accusations or any involvement in the protest movement. any notion that we are popping up or supporting these protests, or the initiators of them is completely and demonstrably false. so his honeymoon over for israel and the u. s athens and yahoo's most recent statements. it seems they are good for now. but certainly there ross and clowns in the clear skies of his friendship. and as biden said, it remains to be seen. i was talking just a bit earlier in the program to a simon sip is an international relations expert who says that if and he that and yahoo tries to continue with the judicial reform. it could well spell the end for that of his tenure and his government. i think he has a big shave now he's 5 and we probably won't see if he doesn't stop this. we'll see

a continuation of july and the government may fall. and we might have, if you will let them get my opinion. this is one of the elements of the problem. i think i want it but, but also the demo specialist which is connected to all good to go. he can be seen which is an element of diploma or you know that this i'm not, i'm not please what. busy what your government give you as well. so i'm going to use this. so this is, this is from canada has sent more than a $1000000000.00 worth of military assistance to ukraine over the past year. and now the country's prime minister has not to dodge a question from a local journalist who asked him point blank, why candida is engage and approx see war with russia. mr. judo.

mr. rudo, why do you keep wrapping up the proxy war? why do you keep wrapping up the proxy war with russia, mr. to go? mr trudeau? you said you said more than $2000000000.00. it was in service proxy war and the native i was talking to somebody else in the program to even go to the canadian journalist to pose those questions. and he says the country has substantially contributed to key haves, ongoing war effort. live was the mojo paper, did a calculation tabulated that canada had sent $2260000000.00, canadian dollars in weapons already. and actually since then there's been a number of announcements. so i trust the newspaper more than i trust the government itself. so i think it's probably almost certainly over $2000000.00 and, and maybe more, but that's only a small part of it. i mean, candidates providing intelligence to ukrainian military. you have command special

forces on the ground. you have a former many former clean soldiers that have been killed in that are fighting the canadian government has, has greatly contributed to the, to the proxy war as well as helping provoke the conflict. no more than a year ago. in politicians. you know, it's remarkable. i mean, somebody, even if somebody who's a strong supporter, what canada's doing in ukraine should at least want a debate about it, but the media, the mainstream journalists, they don't even ask the questions. there's not really any, any debate. it's just assumed that what canada is doing is good and the question is, should we do even more? not whether we helped it over to get a quote which in 2014, not whether we undermine the midst to piece according to our operation. unifier training mission. not whether we should have, you know, opposed to us moves to put more and more nuclear weapons in eastern europe. and

it's just to sort of assume that, you know, russia is all bad and our side is all good. and we didn't need to keep, you know, candidates, foreign minister didn't good to go to keys in january, didn't need to go there and push for nato expansion. that was absolutely unnecessary. did you and other things we did to sort of stop the conflict? if you don't know any of that, then you think the can is just, you know, putting money into a good cause. if you look at any foreign policy and i, i've looked at the foreign policy all around the world, canada is very closely aligned with washington. the canadian arms industry is completely integrated with the us arms industry. arms companies always like more wars and more possibilities to deliver weapons is good to the arms companies, canada founding the u. s. britain and canada found denito for formally founding $949.00. so 10 years long been a very staunch pro neo force. and so candidates taking a very belligerent position and there's very little cost,

unlike germany or some of the central european countries, there's almost no cost for canada, right? of energy prices haven't gone up and the, the spin spillover cost is much, much less than in some of the other nato, nato countries quarter, possibly out here in moscow, the prime minister of poland and his romanian counterpart have taken aim with the e. u for failing to deliver on the key points of the western back ukrainian grain deal resulting in european farm was devastated as over supply forces local prices to tank. let's get on this right now. of course, live to actually contribute to rachel marston joining us here live on the program. good to see you, rachel, to what exactly is happening here and what, what the prime ministers have to say as well. well, polish prime minister mateus mar. wiki is usually busy, browbeating germany, france in the us, in the rest of the west for not doing enough for ukraine. now poland is always

leading the charge and demanding higher powered weapons for ukraine, and is quick to rummage through its closet for fighter jets and tanks when it can easily replace them with better weapons for itself. with all that defense assistant cash from washington and adjust reportedly billed the e u. 2000000000 euros for sending hand me down. weapons that it had to ukraine. yeah. why sell for a h n n? when you can get rid of it from your closet and replace it with chanel, right? it's like giving away your whole wardrobe to a friend, and then billing your parents for it. so of course, you're not walking around naked from a national security perspective. so poland has really been generous with ukraine when others are footing the bill. but when it comes to sacrificing its own economic competitiveness to ukraine, well, in that case, not so generous. and the same goes for its neighbor romania, judging by statements made by the countries prime ministers and a joint press conference. have a listen here to we speak with one voice. this grain, as promised by the european commission,

was supposed to go to africa in the middle east. meanwhile, procedural imperfections and tardiness in certain areas led to the fact that some of the screen and other agricultural produce has remained in the eastern part of europe, thereby driving down prices for farmers. together we are engaged in a process to discuss with the european commission, where the mechanism should be to enforce the trust ability, if your credit exports to final destinations. so now they want brussels to trace the grain because it's impacting their countries any interest in tracing all the weapons. the poland is dumping into grain while demanding that others do likewise at the risk of it blowing back into europe. or no, it was just last november that european commission, president ursula vander line, announced the grain from ukraine initiative alongside zalinski and another 1000000000 euros to funds so called solidarity lanes for the grain and quote, coming together to avert hunger around the world. but apparently, a 1000000000 bucks can't buy competence since the grain is swerving out of the

solidarity lanes and crash landing right on polish and romanian farmers as they're pretty quick to say themselves. it effect prices in local regional markets have dropped, causing a significant impact on farmers income. the commission is not reacting swiftly enough. ah, members had already flagged the concerns about market disruptions last year. if poland and romania don't watch out, they'll be accused of paddling fake news, which is exactly how the west has routinely qualified. any suggestion that the ukrainian grain programs like grain from ukraine and the black sea grain initiative are not actually feeding the world's poor. now, turkish president, rage up air to one pointed out earlier this year that 44 percent of ukrainian grain is actually going to europe and just 14 percent african countries. now if you crane just needs to make a buck, then why not just say so. instead,

the went out of their way to sell it as a world hunger program to get the ball rolling, only than to use it to stock up its own pantry at the expense of its local producers. good thing to you has more cash to toss at this new problem that it created. 56.3000000 euros to be exact, for bulgarian polish and romanian farmers impacted by its latest active, self owning. and how did brussels frame that hand out? by blaming russia, of course, and claiming that quote, the trade disruptions incurred by the russian aggression should not take place at the expense of far hearse from neighboring countries. now, moscow is clearly no match for the use own special brand of home grown incompetence . all right, i'll take a derivative. rachel mawson. thank you. now the head of the don't, ex republic says it advancing russian troops of flanking ukrainian forces on both sides of the key ton of the car. now the question is,

why is this region so important or rational authorities say that taking the area would eliminate a strategic position. the key of forces have been using to attack civilian areas. now, over the past 9 years, the town is just roughly 20 kilometers away from the regional capital of the next city. and if indeed control is gain, many se would insure security for the people of that region. well, let 100 open until corresponding roman culture are reporting now on the increasing usage of russian drones in that part ah, international brigade that nash guy is just one of many groups who are working towards liberation of that found off of dave. go just outside of dentist now since

the start of the special military operation, we've seen the rise of use of these drones. now. this sir, this man, he is a drone operator and as you can see there is a grenade attached to of this unmanned aerial vehicle. and a right now, this drawn boot head towards the positions offer ukrainian and military, and we will see exactly what is happening. she's right now going to start the drone and take it towards ukrainian, melissa's, ah, the shirt from the coil. it's us just prestigious. the if k is now partly circle she now we're working to strengthen our physicians to provide visual controls from

both sides in order to introduce internal rotations. so far they have stable supplies, but that will soon seize as we gain further control of the routes. so let's explain to people who mercenary thong, they're generally people with combat experience who usually take bought and sold stores. the defense of war is followed by ukrainians themselves. when it comes to of day, of course, the 110th brigade there, ukrainians, armed with war and weapons, things had reached a point where when the standard and line of defense is for nursing and the weapons they have are without labels. there is not a single word in either russian or you, queen, you know them claims. we have reached a point that when we hit the target, they will take off the port on a broken house and place a civilian there. and we'll frame things in a way where them water is not visible. that so where present in a footage where there is a motor, but also private houses and people in civilian clothes. in one case,

3 more to cruise more found based in areas that seem to be residential. we so this land without blood and sweat, these buildings will all be rebuilt. we give you the food dish so that people understand why houses are being destroyed. we are returning from the outskirts of, of the if guy after yet another successful mission. by push stone. he works almost every single day and goes to the front line. in order to bring victory closer. rahman, cauthrin, rti, the next republic in an upcoming deal for a 150000 tons of rice from india, egypt to set to bypass the u. s. dollar unused though rupee in bilateral trade. if the country is reported having issues making trade payments with the greenback or egypt is not alone or some north african nations are also having the very same problem. a cairo recently purchased 2 ship loads of rice and had his use to settled the deal in the american currency to the smooth other trading process. the country

already started trading with russia in local currencies. now, egypt would join 18 countries. at least that of agreed to do business in rupees for cross border transactions. essentially at a bit to d dollar rise, that part of global trade and the indian rupees edging closer to becoming that of an international currency potentially. well, let's get more details now. across lie to dr. margaret bathrooms, professor of political science at hell one university. joining us here on our tea international, a very warm welcome to today. so thank you very much for joining us on this program . what a fascinating story as well, what do you make of egypt discussions about possibly replacing dollars with rupees? i mean, would you really expect that to happen? let's do it from a more comprehensive view. ah, the dollarization is one of the better order streams of the united states to be a uni polar system. one of the repercussions of the emerging new political global

political system is the de dollarization. why? because there is an emerging number of countries who are defiant to this system is now one of the indicators. this is the expansion of the bricks. now, the bricks including russia, china, india, south africa, and brazil. now they are not only 5, now. they are planning to expand and this will be the inevitable confrontation between the western block and the eastern block, then called the bricks as the plant economies, the socialist economies. as a matter of fact, now this is the 1st indicated of the

demise of the unit polar system and emerging a multi polar system. i think i think he writes a really interesting point that if, if i may just jump in for one moment, please talk to bathrooms, because when you may talk we can just talk all day long. but i wanted to ask you, because i had a guest on earlier today who was saying, basically talking about what you're talking about. and they also said that when you talk about the bricks, nations are right. you talk about their labor forces, you talk about their access to energy, who owns the energy? you talk about the bricks and nat, geo strategic ports. some people say in the not too distant future. if you put the g 7 against the bricks, nations, the bricks at the end of the day will come out on top. your thoughts? yes, of course. this is the future. and that's why it egypt has withdrawn from the grains treaty. the international treaty to join

the russian and provision of brainstorm each of the bilateral agreement. and this was a treaty sized move by government saying that you are resorting about bilateral agreements. now, i want to tell you something else. now we are going back to board because one form of what the exchange now when you are dealing with the a rabo or the a b, now you are having a form of the vortex church that goes back to more than a 100 years ago. and now this is essentially in the economic, in the, even the economically rives global economic crisis, all countries face now and their desire not to go to

the dominance and the germany of the $10.00 the u. s. bond. yeah, yeah. it's quite astonishing daughter, especially when you think about it. just the other day china gigi ping was in here visiting, put in moscow. i know you are following that story. and what was one of the last things that president gee said to put, and he said, we are witnessing the biggest changes happening in a 100 years on russia and china, a driving these changes in vladimir putin simply said, i agree dr. morgan bought ross, we appreciate you joining us, a professor of political science or the hell to one university. we hope to see you again. it's good to have your company this program as well. un investigate, say the e. u is potentially guilty of war crimes by supporting libyan forces, who are responsible for atrocities against civilians and migrants either stuck in or transiting the country. are you in report refer to the libyan coast guard,

which has been supported by the e u and recent? yes. the support given by the e u to the libyan cost guard in terms of pullback push backs and interceptions led to violations of certain human rights. you can push back people to areas that are unsafe and the libyan waters are unsafe for the embarkation of migrants. now, as we all know, libya was plunged into tub oil during a nato backed uprising and bombing campaign in 2011. it was a traditional balance of attempted regime change, and we all know what happened to mom could daffy anyway. libya is a key transit point for migrants from africa in the middle east. you are seeking a better life in europe. and during a probe into alleged human trafficking and smuggling investigators found that migrants from libya was victims of crimes against humanity, even including that of murder. with the european commission responded and said brussels is taking the un concerns seriously. indeed, of course we are very about these, these findings and we are also very much of it about the very difficult situation

on the ground, which we are trying to solve. indeed, also together and working together with the international partners and the un and its agencies are one of the most important partners for us on the ground. we have worked also with you in fact, finding mission when it was in libya, mainly through our delegation in tripoli. so we are of course, taking seriously the concerns they are raising. we are looking into it and, and we are working with it. we did hear from a senior fellow at johns hopkins university who states that european nations have intervened in libby, far beyond what the un ever called for and why? well, as he says to pursue their own geopolitical go. it also illustrates how europe, in particular, italy, france, to a great extent have focused on a very narrow interest in libya, not really for the benefits of libyans, despite all of the, of course, that hyperbole of democracy,

human rights development. all of that, the reality is that the european countries have gotten involved in libya for a very specific european interest. and the primary issue for that was the immigration issue. they wanted to stop african immigration or migration into europe . libya is the primary gate or for those migrants to, to sale, to europe. and they have gotten involved and they abused all kinds of excuses to do that. it was 2011 president sort of causes bush, even before the un resolution add to interfere. yeah, he actually started bombing and he led the campaign add to killed mom or get defeat to a change the regime as far beyond would the you and was calling for.
